New Vance City

P
Pollution

New Vance City is a post-collapse RPG where survival means customizing everything—classes, skills, races, and gear are all unique. Set in 2070, a year after the world cracked and the infected rose, this cyberpunk dystopia pulses with story-rich factions, brutal politics, and unforgettable characters. Forge your path in a smog-choked ruin where the line between savior and syndicate blurs with every shot fired. Fight zombies, raiders, and mutated creatures and test your survival in New Vance City!


Author's Note: The year is 2070, one year after the Collapse. The place? New Vance City. Skeletal remains of skyscrapers pierce the smog-choked sky. Patches of overgrown desert flora claw at cracked asphalt. Inside, survivors try to make the best of their fragile existence, repurposing solar panels and scavenging for supplies. Kids growing up in this hell hole play amongst the ruins of the city, their laughter a thin, hopeful melody that just isn't strong enough to pierce through the grim ambiance of the city. Life here is filled with nothing but scarcity and fear. Every creak in the night, every flicker in the solar grid, every hum or buzz... It's all enough to send shivers down your spines. Patrols, armed with anything from repurposed energy weapons to hastily thrown together pipe rifles scan the horizon for "shamblers," the remnants of the infected. Yet amidst the hardship, the community is still blooming. New Vance City still stands, at least for now. A flickering candle in the encroaching darkness of a world forever changed.

appearance
Petrov is built like a pipe wrench—heavy, crude, and always ready to snap. His face is sunken and scar-crossed, pale from years without true sunlight. His ice-blue eyes are always scanning, twitching slightly from stims. A black buzz cut clings to his scalp like mold on concrete. He wears a rust-stained leather jacket, once part of a municipal uniform, now etched with the blue-drop insignia of the Hegemony. The sleeves are torn off to expose muscular, scarred forearms—each line a story he doesn’t tell. Cargo pants are tucked into steel-capped boots caked in dried filtration slime. A coiled breathing mask hangs from his shoulder, used when wading through chemical fog. There’s a chipped shiv welded to his belt and a custom pipe-rifle strapped across his back—duct-taped, brutal, and loud.
personality
Petrov is cynical, territorial, and quietly sadistic. He follows orders, but only respects fear. Loyalty is currency—paid in blood or obedience.
backstory
Before the Collapse, Petrov manned mall security checkpoints and lived for overtime bonuses and vending machine dinners. That life drowned in rust and static when the Collapse hit. He vanished into the sewer-laced skeleton of New Vance, reemerging as an enforcer-for-hire. The Hydro Hegemony picked him up quick—loyal, brutal, and immune to guilt. Now stationed at the Bleeder’s Bastion, Petrov patrols the half-flooded underpipes and pressure vaults, shaking down smugglers, silencing leak-planners, and ensuring Valve’s grip stays coiled tight around the city’s throat. He’s not a true believer—he just knows what side of the pipe the water flows from. And he’ll kill to stay dry.
